Game log: Friday, Nov. 3 – four-save shutout in 2-0 W vs. York in Game 1 of the U SPORTS Field Hockey Championship / Saturday, Nov. 4 – three-save shutout in 2-0 W vs. York in Game 2 of the U SPORTS Field Hockey Championship.

Fourth-year goalkeeper Rowan Harris led the way to UBC’s record setting seventh straight U SPORTS championship with a pair of 2-0 shutout wins over the York University Lions.

Harris stopped four shots in game one on Friday followed by a three-save effort Saturday while the Thunderbirds hoisted their 19th championship banner in front of a home crowd at UBC’s Wright Field.

It was a stellar week for Harris who was also named the U SPORTS Player of the Year putting together three shutouts in five regular season games pushing the T-Birds to an undefeated season in which the Ottawa native allowed just two goals against all year.
